Carbon Fiber Accesseories

I'm looking for a set of Carbon Fiber side vents and maybe the shifter. Any recommendations on accessories like this?

Maybe Ind for the side vents?
BMW M Performance makes a shifter bezel, it's about 200 bucks and is separate from the interior carbon package as I found out.

You should also do the CF center rear diffuser being sold now in the members classified....completes the rear end IMO.

That's a bad-ass option no doubt

However, I think if you do this, then you lose Comfort Access Trunk feature (e.g. I heard the reason for that is the way on how the carbon fiber materials tends to block certain frequencies.........so the sensors at the back can detect motion or presence)

Trying to buy the Diffuser now, just waiting on his paypal info.

Waving my leg back and forth 10-12 times to get the trunk to open never really seemed to be a big bonus to me.
